A Strong Appeal for the State Fair.

The San Jose Mercury calls on the peo-
pie of Santa Clara county to keep in mind
despite the appeals OF the Mechanics In
stitute syndicate in San Francisco. that
the State Fair will exercise very large
influence for good or evil on the growth
in population of this central belt of the
State. 1t takes place at time when the
expected tide of tourists and immigrants
will be at its food, and will undoubtedly
be visited by many thousands of such

Life On the Moon.

There is reason for thinking that the
moon is not absolutely airless, and, while
it has no visible bodies of water, its soil
may, after all, not be entirely arid and de-
siccated There are observations which
hint at visible changes in certain spots that
could possibly be caused by vegetation,
and there are other observations which
suggest the display of electric luminosity
in rarefed atmosphere covering the
moon. To declare that no possible form
of life can exist under the conditions
prevailing upon the lunar surface would
be saying too much, for human intelli-
gence cannot set bounds to creative power
Yet, within the limits of life, such as we
know them, it is probably safe to assert
that the moon is dead and deserted
world. In other words, if race of beings
resembling ourselves, or resembling any
of our contemporaries in terrestrial life,
ever existed upon the moon, they must long
since have perished. That such beings
may have existed is possible, particularly
if it is true, as generally believed, that the
moon once had comparatively dense at
mosphere and water upon its surface,
which have now, in the process Of cooling
of the lunar globe, been withdrawn into
its interior 1t certainly does not detract
from the interest with which we study the
rugged and beautiful scenery of the moon
to reflect that if We could visit those an
cient sea-bottoms, or explore those glitter
ing mountains, we might, perchance, find
there some remains or mementoeS of a
race that fourished, and perhaps was all
gathered again to its fathers, before man
appeared upon the earth.-Garreh p.
